I am a scientist with +10 years of experience in area of basic research. At this time, I am preparing to change my career and seeking the opportunity to use my technical and professional expertise in the area of Clinical Lab Science. I believe that my strong background in Clinical Lab Science, Biochemistry, Molecular Biology and Computational Biology will allow me to contribute to and enhance the existing strengths of any clinical laboratory. EDUCATION
2016 - present Southeast Community College, Lincoln NE, Associate Degree in Medical Laboratory Technology
1995 - 2000 Institute of Molecular Genetics, Russia, Ph.D. in Molecular Biology
1990 - 1995 Academy of Fine Chemical Technology, Russia, M.S. in Biotechnology PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
2001 - present Research Scientist - Redox Biology Center, University of Nebraska- Lincoln. Perform research in Redox Biology with a particular focus on oxidative stress, hydrogen peroxide mediated signaling, redox regulation in the endoplasmic reticulum and ER stress. My research involves a broad range of experimental and computational methods.
2000 - 2001 Research Scientist - Medical Center "Avicenna", Moscow, Russia. Developed PCR diagnostics systems for detection of following pathogens: HCV, HBV, HSV 1 & 2, HHV-6, CMV, EBV, Chlamydia trachomatis, Chlamydia pneumonia, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Mycoplasma hominis, Mycoplasma genitalium, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Gardnerella vaginalis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Candida albicans, Toxoplasma gondii, Helicobacter pylori, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis/bovis. These molecular diagnostics tools were used by clinical diagnostics laboratories throughout Russia and the Middle East. Systems for detection of HCV, HBV, CMV, HSV type 1 and 2, and Chlamydia trachomatis were certified by the VQC (AcroMetrix) quality control program in 2001-2004. CORE COMPETENCIES
